Flee away
"Cough! Cough!"
"Elena, what's the matter?" Derek asked.
"It's all right now," I murmured as I stepped out carefully. He guided me to the bed by holding my arm.
What exactly is going on? I missed my menstrual cycle. Could it be? It can't possibly be. I clutched his arm with both hands. He sat me down on the bed and picked up the phone. "What are you up to?" I asked. Derek said, "Let me call Lucy." "Derek," I hesitantly called his name. "Everything will be alright, darling," he assured me.
Lucy was urged by Derek to come home as soon as possible. "I'm OK, Derek. I have vomited once ", I stated. Derek said, "Did you eat anything?"
"No, simply," Derek interrupted before I could say anything, "Let me make chicken soup." "Please don't," I pleaded. But he disregarded my advice and replied, "Today, I'll prepare the soup for you," before heading downstairs.
The opposing viewpoint.
Paul's eyes were fixed on the ceiling. Suddenly, a ward boy approached and whispered, "Sir." I took a glance at the door. "Sir, your mother wants to talk with you," he said. I sprang from my bed and dashed to the front door.
I said, "Give me the phone." "Here, please do as soon as possible," he urged hesitantly. I answered, "Mom." "How are you doing, my baby? It's been a long time since I've heard your voice "Anne broke down into tears.
You know, today I went there. And that jerk and that witch kicked me out of their house. I spent the entire day at the police station, "she added. I was listening carefully to her. You have no right to refer to her as a "bitch" any longer. I need to relax. Mom responded, "Honey, I'll talk to the doctor." "You can't do it. He's Derek's guy ", I responded. "Then?" Anne asked. I fixed my gaze on the ward boy. I responded, "I know someone who can help." "Later, call this number. I have some work. "After saying this, I hung up the phone.
I handed over his phone to him. How much do you want?" I asked emphatically. "What are you talking about, Sir?" he asked. I responded with a smile, "Don't put on a show. Simply state your amount." He gave me an innocent smile.
The Palace of Houston.
Lucy is checking on me, but I'm still thinking about that night. I forgot to take my birth control pills. So that's what I'm thinking. I fixed my gaze on Derek. Lucy abruptly called my name, "Elena."
"Yes," I replied quickly.She fixed her gaze on Derek. "I'd want to speak with her alone. I'll have to check her more, "Lucy insisted. "I'm her husband. You are free to ask whatever you want in front of me, "Derek remarked.
Lucy said, “Derek." " Derek, please," I said, smiling and blinking that I was OK and that he could leave us for a second. "OK, I'll wait outside," Derek said as he walked out.
"Elena," before Lucy could say anything, I said, "Am I?" Yes, she said with a nod. My heart ceased to beat. What now? What am I going to do? I'm not sure what I'll say to Derek.
"What are you thinking?" "Should I tell him-," I interrupted Lucy, hesitantly, "No, I'll tell him."
"Okay, then you two can talk about it. I'll be waiting for your phone call, "claiming that Lucy had left.
I placed my hand on my belly.
Lucy appeared after 10 minutes.
"What's the matter?" I asked, my voice trembling. "Talk to her. She'll tell you everything, "claiming that Lucy did not wait for a second. Is there something wrong with her? "Elena," I said, as I pushed open the door.
Derek rushed over to me. "What did she say, Elena?" he inquired. I fixed my gaze on him. I'm not sure what to say. Will he accept me after hearing it? I don't want to be a burden to anyone else. If he doesn't want me, I won't impose myself on him. What if he requests an abortion? "Elena.".
"Hmm," I said. "Derek".
"Is there something serious?" he asked. "I'm sorry," I murmured, tightening my jaw. "Why are you apologizing? What's the matter? "? He took my hand in his. "I'm pregnant," I declared.
"What?" he said, startled.
Derek's Point of View
I thought I was hearing things wrong when I heard she was pregnant. I shifted my gaze away from her. That jerk won't let me live peacefully. He had left his existence in Elena.
Derek remained silent. For a few minutes, we remained in that position. I'm not sure how to deal with him. But if he begs for an abortion, I don't think I'll be able to comply. Then it is preferable that I leave him. I said, "Derek." But he remained silent. "I didn't know it would happen. I wasn't myself at the moment. I'm sorry. I said, "If you ask me to abort this baby, I'm afraid I won't be able to." I pushed my lips together.
He inquired, "Are you done?"
"I will not stop you from divorcing me. I don't deserve you ", I expressed my displeasure. "How dare you?" Derek said furiously as he grabbed my arm.
I heard someone whispering "sir," and I opened my eyes. "I spoke with your mother," he remarked with a smile. "I'll help you in escaping tonight. Please put this dress on. No one will be able to doubt you after that ", he said. I gladly accepted the dress.
Elena, I'm on my way. We'll leave after that. It's just you and me. No one, not our mother, nor our father, will be able to stop us.
